I've had my 650 for a few weeks now and I quite like the standard epub font (especially after I've resized it in Calibre), but the pseudo italics did annoy me a little in the book I just finished, so I decided to give this a try.

I managed to change the font for the main text okay, but chapter headings and intro quotes are still in the default font and bodgy italics on the book I tweaked. Anyone know why this is happening?

And BTW, SmartyPants, that code looks fine. One thing that threw me at first though was that I didn't have 'Data' written in there ( res:///Data/fonts/ ). 'Data' should not be a directory on your Reader, but it needs to be in the code (I hope that makes sense :-)
